Doc’s Dram

A fall-spiced Sour from Joaquin Simo (of Death & Co and Pouring Ribbons fame) featuring an unusual base combination of Rye and Old Tom Gin
The malt and spice in the Ransom Old Tom integrate really well with the apple and maple flavors, the East India sherry adds nots of raisins and nuts, and the softer rye provides a nice base
1.5 oz Old Overholt Rye
.5 oz Ransom Old Tom Gin (really want the malty notes from this brand vs Hayman’s, others)
.5 oz Lustau East India Sherry
.75 oz Fresh Lemon Juice
.5 oz Maple Syrup (Grade B has stronger overall maple flavor)
1 tsp Apple Butter
1 dash Angostura Bitters
Shake with ice, strain into chilled double rocks glass with large ice cube. Garnish with an apple fan
